"Accepting the qualifying offer doesn't limit us from talking, so I'm definitely still open to it if that helps mitigate costs for this year or sign more guys," Martinez said yesterday.
"To my understanding, [discussing a multi-year deal] is still on the table," Martinez added.
Reds COO Doug Healy said last week that the 2025 payroll would be "at or above" last year's roughly $100MM level.
President of baseball ops Nick Krall called Martinez a "great team guy" and a "lead-by-example guy."
